Unicorn Theatre Presents Dear Edwina Jr.
A 1995 theater camp at the Shore Club in Hubbards served as the seed for the development of the Unicorn Theatre in St. Margarets Bay. Hubbard hosted the premiere of the theater’s inaugural play, Annie, in 1996.
The Unicorn Theatre now operates out of St. Margarets Bay’s Bay Community Centre and provides a comprehensive theatrical curriculum for students in grades three through eleven. They cast two main shows each year, one in the fall and one in the spring, through auditions. Dear Edwina Jr. ticket sales are currently underway. Come and be amazed this weeked at The Bay Community Centre!
